Elegy For Nicole

Jun 10 '07

The Bottom Line Anna Nicole Smith is victim and a live sacrifice for the multiple gods of our modern times!

What more can we say
about Anna Nicole
Smith

or hear
or write

or blog
and fantasize

or cannibalize
and paparazzize

for she is gone
to cross the stark

the final divide
the River Styx

to the arena of nowhere
to the final stage

the cave of worms
where the finality

is decay and
the shell of whitest bones

of that blonde
that golden rose
of Texas

that body millions
desired

and lusted
and envied

even in death
charlatans and impostors

fought for and
wanted her body

a beautiful and
fair maiden of old

chosen as a sacrifice
to the gods

the modern gods
of sex and lust

the god of lucre
and greed

the god of paparazzis
and scandal-hungry media

and bored public wanting
excitement of lowest nature

for Nicole is Eve's of Eden
worse vision come true

of a woman violated
of a woman turned to

a symbol of worldly
lust and degradation.
